The SLR is indeed a piece of art and if MB design department works hard on all their cars like they did with the SLR, then only beautiful cars would come out of their birds nest.
I feel that the SLR has taken alot of beating here but you gotta give it some creds for it's looks. It definetly has one of the most exciting looks every. I remember when the concept was shown at the auto show, Oh boy the car over shadowed every thing else in the building and I'm sure that more than 60% of the members here has had a picture of the car as a desktop bakground. IMO the SLR is a living classic which does look extremly fresh eventhough the concept is 6 years old.
